@@hammerfalls9992 Yes, I was aware of it being a commuter train (some of which I have used in Japan), but my comment was not aimed at the Shinkansen itself, but the words "superior Japanese technology and maintenance" which may be mostly good, but has produced some poor results in a few instances (think of IET on the GWR or if you have ever worked on Japanese ship some of the machinery leaves a lot to be desired).

310 Kph on the Shinkansen is as smooth as glass with very little sensation of speed until you enter a tunnel. If a Shinkensen is a minute late it's a news story in Japan. You can literally set your watch by the arrival and departure of the trains. The cars are spotless, inside and out, and the bathrooms are clean and spacious. If we had that kind of train service in the U.S. the airlines with their tiny seats, "go f_ _ _ _ yourself" attitudes, surcharge after surcharge, and peanuts if your lucky, would either go belly up, or learn what customer service means.

[@willfe]

I'd love to see nationwide train service like this. Crossing the country in 10 hours by comfy train beats cramming into an airplane for a 6 hour ride hands-down. Monstrously expensive to build and run though; we've got a lot more ground to cover in the States than they do in Japan. And I can't say whether I would worry more if a private corporation tried to do it or our government did. Either way it probably wouldn't match the high standard set by the Shinkansen.

[@themodfather9382]

These huge cost of maintenances and replacements of various parts and supporting facilities causes the high price of shinkanses service. Actually it is pretty simple, good service = high price. It is a simple math... So, you can't expect these type of trains runs with subsidize from the government, as a part of public service obligation. Except, for the local train or some suburb service, that's another thing.

[@Aequitaserz]

3000 workers each night for just 1 section of the track maintenance.... the cost is huge!

[@fw1421]

I would be interested to see what the profitability of these trains are. With the religious maintenance of the trains and the lines themselves the upkeep has to be seriously costly. In the US the CEO’s would never spend so much on maintenance if they could avoid it. All they care is increased shareholder values. Just look at the US Airline industry,they go to extremes to avoid maintenance costs. Outsourcing to low wage countries,spreading out maintenance intervals to the minimum the manufacturers and the FAA will allow.

One question. Why every Shinkansen unit has a dirty roof (???). Is washing the roof in the unit is such a problem? Each train carries a ton of "debris" on roof ....

[@姓名-b7o]

Probably no problem. Maybe a little bit larger drag coefficient (C_D value, although it mainly comes from a friction between flowing air and a fuselage that has stain). But it can be easily overcame by powerful motors. If the clean roof is pursued, the car must be washed every day and it cost a lot. Money for such cleaning is invested in rigid maintenance, I guess.

[@spearheadinc]

I did not mean to wash the roof every day. It can be 3-4 times a year. I understand that the train's body is cleaned every day and very well. Thanks for the reply ;-)
